Well, cdrecord-2.01.01a23 is original and not so unrecent. It is installed setuid root here. Do you suspect you made changes meanwhile which would avoid that problem ? I tried it now with two DVD-RW which were written by cdrecord-2.01.01a23 in DAO mode to the size of 2297000 sectors resp. to 512000 sectors. Same result. This works fine: cdrecord -v dev=0,0,0 blank=fast cdrecord -v dev=0,0,0 -sao tsize="$size"s - This fails: cdrecord -v dev=0,0,0 blank=fast -sao tsize="$size"s - The timing makes me believe that the media capacity is checked before blanking and thus cdrecord interprets a media state which will not be present any more at write time. This test seems to interpret unsuitable DVD media as exotic CDs. There is no failure if the DVD-RW is already blank. I.e. suitable media pass that size check. I got cdrtools-2.01.01a32 on my TODO list but currently there is a little traffic jam on that list. If you cannot reproduce the phenomenon then give me instructions what to try with 2.01.01a32 in order to learn about the decisive circumstances. Have a nice day :) Thomas -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
